extreme ghostbusters the ultimate invasion

When at the Zuul building, you have your guide two out of three of your Ghostbusters in between the Stay-Puft marshmallow man’s legs to enter. As the game progresses, eventually the main Zuul building will flash and this is your main goal of the game. Rinse and repeat until you have the best possible equipment. The more ghosts you trap, the more money you make and the more money you have, the better equipment you can buy. Once you are satisfied you think you can trap the ghosts, you would trigger the trap and capture the ghosts. You control two of the team and have to angle your proton streams to force that ghosts toward your trap. This is where the game changes to a more ghost busting action scene. Unless you know what you are supposed to be doing, this was very confusing at the time.īasically you have to wait until a place need help from ghosts and move the Ghostbusters logo to the building. You then find yourself on a overhead map like screen that looks kind of like Pac-Man with you controlling the Ghostbusters logo. But why would you want to play a Ghostbusters game with a car that wasn’t Ecto 1? Once you have your vehicle and equipment, its time to bust some ghosts. In some versions of the game, you could even select different cars. You start by selecting your equipment from ghost traps to a vacuum… yes a vacuum.

It was on a friend’s ZX Spectrum before we got a copy for our Commodore 64 later. I still remember the first time I played back in the 80s. This one was somewhat popular at the time and was ported to pretty much every popular computer and console at the time. Originally made for the Commodore 64 and Atari 800 but later ported to various computers and consoles including the ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, MSX, Atari 2600, Sega Master System and NES.īased on the events of the first movie. Ghostbusters: Designed by David Crane and produced by Activision, released in 1984. Let’s get stuck in with the first ever Ghostbusters game and the first one I remember. Some I have fond memories of and some I wish I could forget. There have been quite a few Ghostbusters games, more than I first realised in fact. From the simpler times of the Atari 2600 and ZX Spectrum to modern day with the PS4 and Xbox One. Still going with my Birthday/Ghostbusters celebration as I now take a look at the many and various Ghostbusters games over the years.
